During this \"incubation\" phase, key themes relevant to his future work emerged, which now structure this book: biography as material for artistic forming; Beuys and poetry\/romanticism; natural sciences: physics, chemistry, botany, zoology and geography; philosophy\/anthropology Steiner; evolution; economics, capitalism, labour, politics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe aim of \u003cem\u003eJoseph Beuys: Intuition!\u003c\/em\u003e, along with the 2021 exhibition of the same name at Museum Kurhaus Kleve for which it is the catalogue, is neither to venerate a local saint of Kleve nor to topple an artist from an earlier generation. Instead, it highlights the influences, ideas and caesuras that saw Beuys develop from a \"sensitive traditionalist\" into a \"visionary social sculptor.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Thames and Hudson (Australia) Pty Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47463362363628,"sku":"9783958299009","price":110.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9783958299009-joseph-beuys-intuition.jpg?v=1775031994","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/products\/joseph-beuys-intuition-by-joseph-beuys-9783958299009","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
